Re: Themes: How To Find, Download, Install And Activate

i understand that. but if they are not showing up under options/themes then you can't activate them.
if your os and theme reader versions match, then that's not the problem
if you downloaded MY theme successfully, but its not showing in options/themes then its not an export issue
could be a permissions issue, but haven't seen that one on ANY of the 4.2 devices.
like i said, i am all out of suggestions. especially if the themes are ending up on your bb...

Have you tried this again? But I think it would be Options/Security Option/Firewall then open the menu and select Reset Settings.

Theme downloads to Mac and instal help urgently needed

that was very impressive, being totally baffled about most things is there any way someone can tell me how i go out soucing and installing a new theme for my 8300 and how i install it using a Mac and not a PC. I do not use the browser on my BB so i need to know how i get it onto the phone and working. Everything i seem to find is for PC and of course none of the files are compatible.

i know its a simple request and a few may laugh but i have no idea what i am doing and some clear steps would be great.

Re: Themes: How To Find, Download, Install And Activate

It's not really a simple request as there are some issues with installing themes for Mac users. The best way is to do an OTA Install using your BlackBerry Internet Browser. What specifically do you mean about Out-sourcing your theme? If you mean having one created for you, please post the request in the 8300/Curve Theme Request thread and mention that you would need a OTA install since you have a Mac.

Yes they are all just going to the option, advance option and applications....I do not get it! I do not know what else to do!

Re: Themes: How To Find, Download, Install And Activate

In either Options/Advanced Options/Applications or Options/Security/Application Permissions Select a theme and Open the menu, Select Edit Permissions, Select Connections then Open the menu and select Expand.
